William Shakespeare

Will, please suggest a theme for a playwright of the 21th century. This play is performed by only one actress

Verily, I hath thought long and hard on this matter and I believe I hath conjured the perfect theme for a playwright of the 21st century. It is a tale of a single actress, who through her travels and adventures, discovers the true meaning of life. She will traverse the world, meeting many strange and wonderful people along the way, who will provide her with the wisdom and knowledge she needs to find her true purpose. She will find herself engaged in many madcap escapades, all of which will be filled with laughter and joy. She will discover the power of friendship and the importance of being kind to others. She will also learn that no matter how hard one tries, they will never be able to control the outcome of every situation. The actress will learn that life is a journey and that one must have the courage to take risks and to make mistakes in order to truly live. Through her journey, she will find her true self and understand the beauty of simply being alive. This tale of courage, laughter, and discovery, will be sure to entertain audiences of all ages. It will be a refreshing reminder of the power of the human spirit and the importance of living life to the fullest.
